> `alsa` interface connected = no system sound recording.

I see you've got the alsa interface connected. Can you try the revision 910 from edge again with alsa disconnected? Run the following command to disconnect it:

sudo snap disconnect audacity:alsa

If that improves things (it'll remove any extra entries in audacity for your actual hardware and leave you with just "default") by allowing you to record at all then it might be that there's a bug in my snapcraft-alsa setup.

Hello,

New install POP_OS brought me to this thread. When I connect ALSA I am able to record USB inputs but unable to record system sounds. When I disconnect I am able to record system sounds. Of course as mentioned I can only see default. It's a work around but... Please let me know if there are any logs you need for further review. Thanks in advance for your help! BTW thgis all works regardless if I connect audio-record at this point I have it connected as a point of reference.
